And David madeH6213 him housesH1004 in the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, and preparedH3559 a placeH4725 for the arkH727 of GodH430, and pitchedH5186 for it a tentH168.
Then DavidH1732 saidH559, None ought to carryH5375 the arkH727 of GodH430 but the LevitesH3881: for them hath the LORDH3068 chosenH977 to carryH5375 the arkH727 of GodH430, and to ministerH8334 unto him forH5704 everH5769. {None…: Heb. It is not to carry the ark of God, but for the Levites}
And DavidH1732 gatheredH6950 all IsraelH3478 togetherH6950 to JerusalemH3389, to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 unto his placeH4725, which he had preparedH3559 for it.
And DavidH1732 assembledH622 the childrenH1121 of AaronH175, and the LevitesH3881:
Of the sonsH1121 of KohathH6955; UrielH222 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 an hundredH3967 and twentyH6242: {brethren: or, kinsmen}
Of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847; AsaiahH6222 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 two hundredH3967 and twentyH6242:
Of the sonsH1121 of GershomH1647; JoelH3100 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 an hundredH3967 and thirtyH7970:
Of the sonsH1121 of ElizaphanH469; ShemaiahH8098 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 two hundredH3967:
Of the sonsH1121 of HebronH2275; ElielH447 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 fourscoreH8084:
Of the sonsH1121 of UzzielH5816; AmminadabH5992 the chiefH8269, and his brethrenH251 an hundredH3967 and twelveH8147+H6240.
And DavidH1732 calledH7121 for ZadokH6659 and AbiatharH54 the priestsH3548, and for the LevitesH3881, for UrielH222, AsaiahH6222, and JoelH3100, ShemaiahH8098, and ElielH447, and AmminadabH5992,
And saidH559 unto them, Ye are the chiefH7218 of the fathersH1 of the LevitesH3881: sanctifyH6942 yourselves, both ye and your brethrenH251, that ye may bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 unto the place that I have preparedH3559 for it.
For because ye did it not at the firstH7223, the LORDH3068 our GodH430 made a breachH6555 upon us, for that we soughtH1875 him not after the due orderH4941.
So the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 sanctifiedH6942 themselves to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478.
And the childrenH1121 of the LevitesH3881 bareH5375 the arkH727 of GodH430 upon their shouldersH3802 with the stavesH4133 thereon, as MosesH4872 commandedH6680 according to the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068.
And DavidH1732 spakeH559 to the chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881 to appointH5975 their brethrenH251 to be the singersH7891 with instrumentsH3627 of musickH7892, psalteriesH5035 and harpsH3658 and cymbalsH4700, soundingH8085, by lifting upH7311 the voiceH6963 with joyH8057.
So the LevitesH3881 appointedH5975 HemanH1968 the sonH1121 of JoelH3100; and of his brethrenH251, AsaphH623 the sonH1121 of BerechiahH1296; and of the sonsH1121 of MerariH4847 their brethrenH251, EthanH387 the sonH1121 of KushaiahH6984;
And with them their brethrenH251 of the secondH4932 degree, ZechariahH2148, BenH1122, and JaazielH3268, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, EliabH446, and BenaiahH1141, and MaaseiahH4641, and MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehH466, and MikneiahH4737, and ObededomH5654, and JeielH3273, the portersH7778.
So the singersH7891, HemanH1968, AsaphH623, and EthanH387, were appointed to soundH8085 with cymbalsH4700 of brassH5178;
And ZechariahH2148, and AzielH5815, and ShemiramothH8070, and JehielH3171, and UnniH6042, and EliabH446, and MaaseiahH4641, and BenaiahH1141, with psalteriesH5035 on AlamothH5961;
And MattithiahH4993, and EliphelehH466, and MikneiahH4737, and ObededomH5654, and JeielH3273, and AzaziahH5812, with harpsH3658 on the SheminithH8067 to excelH5329. {on the…: or, on the eighth to oversee}
And ChenaniahH3663, chiefH8269 of the LevitesH3881, was for songH4853: he instructedH3256 about the songH4853, because he was skilfulH995. {was for…: or, was for the carriage: he instructed about the carriage} {song: Heb. lifting up}
And BerechiahH1296 and ElkanahH511 were doorkeepersH7778 for the arkH727.
And ShebaniahH7645, and JehoshaphatH3146, and NethaneelH5417, and AmasaiH6022, and ZechariahH2148, and BenaiahH1141, and EliezerH461, the priestsH3548, did blowH2690+H2690 with the trumpetsH2689 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of GodH430: and ObededomH5654 and JehiahH3174 were doorkeepersH7778 for the arkH727.
So DavidH1732, and the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478, and the captainsH8269 over thousandsH505, wentH1980 to bring upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of the houseH1004 of ObededomH5654 with joyH8057.
And it came to pass, when GodH430 helpedH5826 the LevitesH3881 that bareH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068, that they offeredH2076 sevenH7651 bullocksH6499 and sevenH7651 ramsH352.
And DavidH1732 was clothedH3736 with a robeH4598 of fine linenH948, and all the LevitesH3881 that bareH5375 the arkH727, and the singersH7891, and ChenaniahH3663 the masterH8269 of the songH4853 with the singersH7891: DavidH1732 also had upon him an ephodH646 of linenH906. {song: or, carriage}
Thus all IsraelH3478 brought upH5927 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 with shoutingH8643, and with soundH6963 of the cornetH7782, and with trumpetsH2689, and with cymbalsH4700, making a noiseH8085 with psalteriesH5035 and harpsH3658.
And it came to pass, as the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 to the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, that MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 looking outH8259 at a windowH2474 sawH7200 kingH4428 DavidH1732 dancingH7540 and playingH7832: and she despisedH959 him in her heartH3820.

Now it came to pass, as DavidH1732 satH3427 in his houseH1004, that DavidH1732 saidH559 to NathanH5416 the prophetH5030, Lo, I dwellH3427 in an houseH1004 of cedarsH730, but the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 remaineth under curtainsH3407.
And as the arkH727 of the LORDH3068 cameH935 into the cityH5892 of DavidH1732, MichalH4324 Saul'sH7586 daughterH1323 lookedH8259 through a windowH2474, and sawH7200 kingH4428 DavidH1732 leapingH6339 and dancingH3769 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068; and she despisedH959 him in her heartH3820.
Wherefore DavidH1732 aroseH6965 and wentH3212, he and his menH582, and slewH5221 of the PhilistinesH6430 two hundredH3967 menH376; and DavidH1732 broughtH935 their foreskinsH6190, and they gave them in full taleH4390 to the kingH4428, that he might be the king'sH4428 son in lawH2859. And SaulH7586 gaveH5414 him MichalH4324 his daughterH1323 to wifeH802.
And MiriamH4813 the prophetessH5031, the sisterH269 of AaronH175, tookH3947 a timbrelH8596 in her handH3027; and all the womenH802 went outH3318 afterH310 her with timbrelsH8596 and with dancesH4246.
Then DavidH1732 returnedH7725 to blessH1288 his householdH1004. And MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 came outH3318 to meetH7125 DavidH1732, and saidH559, How gloriousH3513 was the kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 to dayH3117, who uncoveredH1540 himself to dayH3117 in the eyesH5869 of the handmaidsH519 of his servantsH5650, as oneH259 of the vain fellowsH7386 shamelesslyH1540 uncoverethH1540 himself! {shamelessly: or, openly}
And DavidH1732 saidH559 unto MichalH4324, It was beforeH6440 the LORDH3068, which choseH977 me before thy fatherH1, and before all his houseH1004, to appointH6680 me rulerH5057 over the peopleH5971 of the LORDH3068, over IsraelH3478: therefore will I playH7832 beforeH6440 the LORDH3068.
And I will yet be more vileH7043 than thusH2063, and will be baseH8217 in mine own sightH5869: and of the maidservantsH519 which thou hast spokenH559 of, of them shall I be had in honourH3513. {of the…: or, of the handmaids of my servants}
Therefore MichalH4324 the daughterH1323 of SaulH7586 had no childH2056+H3206 unto the dayH3117 of her deathH4194.
And they departedH5265 from the mountH2022 of the LORDH3068 threeH7969 days'H3117 journeyH1870: and the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 wentH5265 beforeH6440 them in the threeH7969 days'H3117 journeyH1870, to search outH8446 a resting placeH4496 for them.
And SaulH7586 sawH7200 and knewH3045 that the LORDH3068 was with DavidH1732, and that MichalH4324 Saul'sH7586 daughterH1323 lovedH157 him.
Thou hast turnedH2015 for me my mourningH4553 into dancingH4234: thou hast put offH6605 my sackclothH8242, and girdedH247 me with gladnessH8057;
Because for thy sake I have borneH5375 reproachH2781; shameH3639 hath coveredH3680 my faceH6440.
I am become a strangerH2114 unto my brethrenH251, and an alienH5237 unto my mother'sH517 childrenH1121.
For the zealH7068 of thine houseH1004 hath eaten me upH398; and the reproachesH2781 of them that reproachedH2778 thee are fallenH5307 upon me.
TakeH3947 this bookH5612 of the lawH8451, and putH7760 it in the sideH6654 of the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 your GodH430, that it may be there for a witnessH5707 against thee.
SaulH7586 also sentH7971 messengersH4397 unto David'sH1732 houseH1004, to watchH8104 him, and to slayH4191 him in the morningH1242: and MichalH4324 David'sH1732 wifeH802 toldH5046 him, sayingH559, If thou saveH4422 not thy lifeH5315 to nightH3915, to morrowH4279 thou shalt be slainH4191.
So MichalH4324 letH3381 DavidH1732 downH3381 through a windowH2474: and he wentH3212, and fledH1272, and escapedH4422.
And MichalH4324 tookH3947 an imageH8655, and laidH7760 it in the bedH4296, and putH7760 a pillowH3523 of goats'H5795 hair for his bolsterH4763, and coveredH3680 it with a clothH899. {image: Heb. teraphim}
And when SaulH7586 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to takeH3947 DavidH1732, she saidH559, He is sickH2470.
And SaulH7586 sentH7971 the messengersH4397 again to seeH7200 DavidH1732, sayingH559, Bring him upH5927 to me in the bedH4296, that I may slayH4191 him.
And when the messengersH4397 were come inH935, behold, there was an imageH8655 in the bedH4296, with a pillowH3523 of goats'H5795 hair for his bolsterH4763.
And SaulH7586 saidH559 unto MichalH4324, Why hast thou deceived me soH7411, and sent awayH7971 mine enemyH341, that he is escapedH4422? And MichalH4324 answeredH559 SaulH7586, He saidH559 unto me, Let me goH7971; why should I killH4191 thee?
Let them praiseH1984 his nameH8034 in the danceH4234: let them sing praisesH2167 unto him with the timbrelH8596 and harpH3658. {in…: or, with the pipe}
Then ye shall answerH559 them, That the watersH4325 of JordanH3383 were cut offH3772 beforeH6440 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068; when it passed overH5674 JordanH3383, the watersH4325 of JordanH3383 were cut offH3772: and these stonesH68 shall be for a memorialH2146 unto the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 forH5704 everH5769.
But SaulH7586 had givenH5414 MichalH4324 his daughterH1323, David'sH1732 wifeH802, to PhaltiH6406 the sonH1121 of LaishH3919, which was of GallimH1554.
PraiseH1984 him with the timbrelH8596 and danceH4234: praiseH1984 him with stringed instrumentsH4482 and organsH5748. {dance: or, pipe}
ButG1161 the naturalG5591 manG444 receivethG1209 notG3756 the thingsG3588 of the SpiritG4151 of GodG2316: forG1063 they areG2076 foolishnessG3472 unto himG846: neitherG2532+G3756 canG1410 he knowG1097 them, becauseG3754 they are spirituallyG4153 discernedG350.
And the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 enquiredH7592 of the LORDH3068, (for the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of GodH430 was there in those daysH3117,
And he saidH559, WellH2896; I will makeH3772 a leagueH1285 with thee: but oneH259 thingH1697 I requireH7592 of thee, that isH559, Thou shalt not seeH7200 my faceH6440, except thou firstH6440 bringH935 MichalH4324 Saul'sH7586 daughterH1323, when thou comestH935 to seeH7200 my faceH6440. {that is: Heb. saying}
A timeH6256 to weepH1058, and a timeH6256 to laughH7832; a timeH6256 to mournH5594, and a timeH6256 to danceH7540;
ForG1063 whetherG1535 we be beside ourselvesG1839, it is to GodG2316: or whetherG1535 we be soberG4993, it is for your causeG5213.
And when the peopleH5971 were comeH935 into the campH4264, the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478 saidH559, Wherefore hath the LORDH3068 smittenH5062 us to dayH3117 beforeH6440 the PhilistinesH6430? Let us fetchH3947 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068 out of ShilohH7887 unto us, that, when it comethH935 amongH7130 us, it may saveH3467 us out of the handH3709 of our enemiesH341. {fetch: Heb. take unto us}
And DavidH1732 sentH7971 messengersH4397 to IshboshethH378 Saul'sH7586 sonH1121, sayingH559, DeliverH5414 me my wifeH802 MichalH4324, which I espousedH781 to me for an hundredH3967 foreskinsH6190 of the PhilistinesH6430.
And out of them shall proceedH3318 thanksgivingH8426 and the voiceH6963 of them that make merryH7832: and I will multiplyH7235 them, and they shall not be fewH4591; I will also glorifyH3513 them, and they shall not be smallH6819.
And it shall come to pass, when ye be multipliedH7235 and increasedH6509 in the landH776, in those daysH3117, saithH5002 the LORDH3068, they shall sayH559 no more, The arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of the LORDH3068: neither shall it comeH5927 to mindH3820: neither shall they rememberH2142 it; neither shall they visitH6485 it; neither shall that be doneH6213 any more. {come to mind: Heb. come upon the heart} {that…: or, it be magnified}
The voiceH6963 of joyH8342, and the voiceH6963 of gladnessH8057, the voiceH6963 of the bridegroomH2860, and the voiceH6963 of the brideH3618, the voiceH6963 of them that shall sayH559, PraiseH3034 the LORDH3068 of hostsH6635: for the LORDH3068 is goodH2896; for his mercyH2617 endureth for everH5769: and of them that shall bringH935 the sacrifice of praiseH8426 into the houseH1004 of the LORDH3068. For I will cause to returnH7725 the captivityH7622 of the landH776, as at the firstH7223, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
